    I don't think it's going to happen Matt... At least not for another 20 years. Another bridge down in flames.

    Yes I know, but you can't help but hope! I read this in a recent interview with Morrissey and what he had to say about the ill-fated tour with Bowie. Still some hope?!!! Read below....

    HEAVEN KNOWS I'M NOT MISERABLE NOW - INTERVIEW - MORRISSEY
    THE TIMES - Saturday 6 November 1999
    By Michael Bracewell

    Jumping from record label to record label (EMI, RCA, Mercury) and manager to manager, he agreed to tour with David Bowie on Bowie's Outsiders tour in 1996, only to retire from the whole thing after just a few concerts. And once again, the rumours began to fly. One of these rumours seems to sum up that entire period: Morrissey was in the lift of a hotel, and a writ was served on him. Having presented the legal document, its deliverer - breaking down - then asked for forgiveness and an autograph. Meanwhile, the Bowie controversy was added to
    Morrissey's reputation for contrariness. "I have never spoken about this up until now because, in spite of everything, I do respect David," he says. "I simply have to play Star Man or Drive-in Saturday
    and I will forgive him for anything. But I left that tour because he put me under a lot of pressure, and I found it too exhausting.
    "But then, Bowie is principally a business, and I can't imagine he would have telephoned his own mother without considering the career implications. David surrounded himself with very strong people, and that's the secret of his power: that everything he does will be seen in a certain light. But it certainly wasn't the greatest career move that I ever made, even though they gave 6,000 refunds in Manchester when I didn't appear - but I don't think you'd have read about
    that in the Manchester Evening News..."
